The Romance of a Season.

Though to the country, fresh and fair,
There are many people going,
I'd rather breathe the seaside air
I'm fond of boats and rowing.
But why the country detest,
II you would know the reason,
I'll tell tale I've ne'er confessed
The romance of season.
My summers have been always spent
Beside old Neptune'S waters,
So for a change last year went
To WOO the farmers daughters.
But though the rural maids ware fair,
found a maiden fairer;
To any country lasses there
never could compare her.
She was the incest girl I'd met;
Her home was in the city.
But. ah she was cruel coquette,
Although so sweet and pretty,
She dabbled in photography,
And took much pleasure in it;
Whenever pretty thing she d see,
She'd take it, in a minute.
She'd take her Cant a pleasant days
She never would forsake it.
And whatsoever met her gaze,
She always had to take it,
One day upon my Bonded knee
My handkerchief was under
asked CHS maid if she'd take me;
She stared in open wonder.
There's but little more to give;
'Twould seem as If she took me:''
AT least got negative
And / confess it shook mel
And so although the country's fair,
This year shall ignore it;
1t may be fnll Of pleasures rare
But shall not explore it,
VAN DYKE ScR1BBLER.

which is called where There's a Win
There's a Way" Ellis makes the villain
niasTy the heroine In the poem Ellis COM
pares the wooing of lover TO the 'lapping

no doubt consent TO listen to both play and
poem II Ellis would come back and bring
their money with him.

Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt, of New York,
made a rather good speech at the dinner
given him few days ago in that city by
the Federal Club, and on the strength of it
the Harrisburg Telegraph has nominated
him for Vice President ON the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Roosevelt will have TO do some
thing more than make good after-dinner
speech before the country will consider him
fit for the Vice Presidency.

Next Years Vote.

From The Boston Herald lInd)
The Herald does not undertake to make 50
close calculation as to predict how nine hun
bred and ninety nine of each thousand of the
independents of 1884 will vote next year What
it did say was that the claim made that
nine hundred and ninety nine Of each thousand
of them would support John Sherman next
year as a candidate for the Presidency was not
true. 1t believes, also, that with President
Cleveland as a candidate for President next
year, the Independent contingent in the vote
will be much larger than it was four years
earlier

Arbitration the Remedy.

From the NelD Yorl; Tribune rep.
The miners at Wilkesbarre, Pa are nearly as
foolish as workngmen ever can be. They quit
work because, as they say, they are unjustly
"docked'' of a part of their wages when they
send up loads of coal containing too much slate;
aud yet the mine owners declared last night
that they had not been informed as TO what the
men complained about. in other instances the
men wanted more wages, which possibly they
were entitled to. But a strike was not the
remedy. Arbitration was the plain cure for all
these troubles

Burns and Sullivan, members of the Chi

Cleveland the other day. The former called
the Presidents attention to the fact that
when the Chicagos were in Washington,
sometime ago, they were defeated in the

they called on the President in body, and
that afternoon walked away with the local
club by score Of 20 to O. The Chicagoes
now consider the President their mascotte.

The Pickett Monument at Gettysburg.
From the New YORK Herald lInd.)

From the NeU York Herald IHd)
Yes, and when the monument is built the sur
vlyors OF that fight can meet and shake hands
we are not to forget that we are Americans, al
of us; that Southern bravery and Northern
bravery are the common pride of the country.
Inc only thing that remains of the past is that
the two armies were made of the best nghting
the present and the future is that North and
South are shoulder to shoulder, and nothing
under heaven can again draw us apart.

Ex-Gov. Hoadly announces that he is not
a candidate for the position on the bench of
the United States Supreme Court, made
vacant by the death of Justice Woods. He
also announces that he would not accept
the position should it he rendered him. 1t
seems, therefore, that the statement that the
Ex-Governor moved from Ohio to New York
in order to be in the line Of appointment
should there be vacancy on the Federal
Supreme bench was untrue.

RELIEF GRANTED.
The Drought-Strlcken Settlers in Color

The Drought Stricken Settlers in Color
ado May Absent Themselves From Their
Claim for One Year Without Prejudice.
WASHINGTON, July 7.-Commissioner
Sparks has written the following letter
in reply to A. F. Clapp, of Julesburg,
Col, which explains itself: 81 am in re.
ceipt of your letter stating that you are
in the midst of a drought with no signs of
crops; that there will be no hay, vege-
tables, etc.; that settlers are leaving to
hunt for work. You state that claim
holders do not want to lose their claims,
and that the ques ton is daily asked if
there are any chances of getting permits,
and what steps are necessary. The
distressing situation you have
mentioned appeals to my strongest
sympathies in favor of actual settlers on
the public domain who are suffering from
drought and loss of crops. and whatever
relief may. be possible within the dlscre-
ton of this Office will be extended to en-
able them to preserve their claims. The
act of July 1, 1879 authorizes settlers,
whose crops are destroyed by grasshop-
pers to be absent from their lands for
period not exceeding one year, with the
right to resume and perfect their
settlement as though no such alb
sence had occurred. Settlers, who
are obliged to leave on account OF
the drought. should be prepared to account
for their absence from this cause when
they make final proof, but in such cases
proof hould not be offered until the law
has been fully complied with after re-
turn to the land. An enforced absence
on account of climatic reason will not i'm
peril the claim if the fact is established
when proof his made, and if proof is not
attempted to be made in advance Of the
time when the residence, Improvement
and cultivation required by law, can be
salts factorily shown"

Awful Disaster in Switzerland.

ZURICH, July THE disaster at Zug
last night is now known to have been
greater than was reported yesterday
morning. Half of the new quays just
completed along the street skirting the
lake of Zug, suddenly sank into the lake,
carrying with it the roadway and forty
houses. Among the buildings was a
crowded inn, known as the Hotel Zurich,
four floors of which were filled with
guests. The hotel, like the other houses,
vanished completely from sight and took
with it large number of its in
m ates, the most of whom were in bed and
asleep There was scarcely any warning
of the catastrophe, and it is likely that
many of those who persisted never knew
what had happened. At least one hun
dred lost their lives. Among those in the
hotel who failed to escape was NJ Collin,
the president of the Canton of Zug. An
